Killing two birds with one blog...

Day 20 → Your views on drugs and alcohol.


It is Friday night and I am sitting at home in front of the computer. My answer to the post for day 20 would have to be in moderation anything is okay.

Truth be told, I have in issue with the over prescribing of drugs. I know the question doesn’t mean prescription drugs but that is the one that I have an opinion on.

Don’t get me wrong, as I post this I can almost feel the follower list going down.

If you have problems with your heart and the only way that you can be stabilized is with a prescription drug then fine, doctor puts you on a drug. If you have problem with attention span…drugs are not necessarily the answer.

Let me tell you that I watched a man who’s answer to the diagnosis is give me a drug, DIE.

I don’t believe that the answer to your problem is in the bottle.



Day 21 → (scenario) Your best friend is in a car accident and you two got into a fight an hour before. What do you do?

Let me make myself clear. If I know that it happened, I am there for you!

As someone who works with addicts, I totally agree. Prescription drug overdoses is the number one cause of drug related deaths in Utah.

Good for you for doing this 30 Day Challenge. I'm too much of wimp, I don't want the introspection, plus my attention span is about that of a fruit fly.

You are really kickin' ass with this challenge... I haven't made it past a 1/2 dozen day with one yet! Congrats on you!!

I wonder what the car crash scenario is supposed to mean? Short of the fight being over the best friend killing someone I loved - how bad does the fight have to be to not do anything? I don't think I get that one.

Damn - I love me some prescription drugs (sorta, awkwardly laughs)

But I get what you are saying and yes I agree with you.

Doing fab with the 30 day challenge, I could have never done it!
